The haiku in this collection reflect Jim's love of nature, life, and family. The book is divided into four chapters, each reflecting one of the seasons. Walk with him through a quiet autumnal forest and marvel at the myriads of yellow, golden, orange, and red leaves. Relax with him by a warm fireplace fire chatting with a loved one, or reading a book. Join him in welcoming Spring as the snow melts and new, green shoots push into the sunlight. Walk with him through a garden, reveling in the scents and colors of summer flowers.

This is a book written with heart and soul. Jim's love of life and the natural world is apparent on every page. He wrote one haiku a day over the course of the year. Sometimes even more than one. He hopes you enjoy them.
